Not to be dramatic or anything (narrator: she’s being dramatic) but I think my doctor is trying to kill me
#so i’ve been trying to renew my prescription for citalopram all week and i haven’t been able to. it’s not showing up#at first i was like ‘oh it must be because i picked it up late last time’#(i had a chest infection and didn’t want to give whatever had caused it to whoever was in the pharmacy. and i kept forgetting to ask anyone#to pick it up for me)#but i checked and it was last issued 1st november. i should be able to get it#so i did some digging… mind you i literally mean i had to dig to get this information. it wasn’t readily apparent in my nhs app at ALL#and it says i need a prescription review before i can get this medicine again#like helloooooo why did no one tell me that earlier??? i’m almost out! i have two pills left#soooo i checked and of course i can’t get a doctor’s appointment until 6th january#i managed to use 111 to request an emergency dose of my prescription but i have no idea if the pharmacy will fill it without approval#from my doctor#honestly i will scream-cry in the pharmacy if they don’t give me my pills. i have no shame#i am not experiencing those side effects again. i threw up last time!!!!#i don’t care if i have to make a scene in several different establishments i am getting my pills tomorrow#maybe i’ll threaten suicide. knowing my luck i’d get 5150’d though#honestly i think they will probably just give it to me but if they don’t i’m going to show up this time next week#and throw up on their floor from the vertigo those withdrawals give me#can i just say as well like. i started on these pills in january. why’s the review 10 months in. that’s such a weird time#why’s it not a year#oh god wait is it a year. i don’t know. no yeah my last fill was november; it has to be a year#look i’m not going to pretend citalopram is some sort of miracle drug. it’s made my dreams vivid and weird; it’s killed my sex drive#and i’m sure it’s made me a little dumb. i just don’t want to throw up again#if i throw up again it’s going to be on the floor of an nhs establishment because WHY DO THIS TO ME#maybe i should’ve been keeping better track of this but i genuinely think it’s WILD to withdraw a prescription that’s THIS important#when you have like NO doctor’s appointments available. what the fuck is it about!!!!#everyone loooves living in a small town til you can’t see a doctor for fucking four weeks#personal
